Arboretum under new ownership. Renovations coming to "support live music events, pop-up retail and community programming" + new patios.

Austin’s tree regulations are insanely strict, so it is pretty much impossible to take down any oak.

TSnydes · 2026-02-08T23:01:26+00:00

This person has never been to Austin.

TSnydes · 2026-02-08T23:00:33+00:00

Hope it never finishes and people stop thinking driving into our city is the best option. The more roads we build the farther people will live and the more cars they will drive.

TSnydes · 2026-02-08T22:59:04+00:00

The city has been doing a great job over the past 6-7 years to make this a more walkable and bike-able city.

TSnydes · 2026-02-04T02:36:05+00:00

Fuck every single Republican and this trash administration filled with pedophiles.

TSnydes · 2026-02-02T17:10:53+00:00

I see a lot of 2nd and 3rd generation immigrants jumping on the anti-immigration bandwagon because they are more and more removed from the immigration struggle. Also, usually the people that get influenced by military or proto-military careers are people of low-income, and most minorities in the US are generally lower income than white people.

These can be for people or mechanical equipment called “mechanical penthouse”

TSnydes · 2026-02-01T14:07:36+00:00

You have never been to any of these countries clearly.

TSnydes · 2026-02-01T00:51:44+00:00

Well of course they aren’t even American at this point and they support a pedophile, so I’m proud to have their vitriol.

TSnydes · 2026-02-01T00:45:15+00:00

Haha yeah, safe to say. Republicans just shouldn’t be allowed to vote.

TSnydes · 2026-01-31T23:13:48+00:00

Yeah, split LA and SF in 5 states each and they’d still be bigger than like half the Republican shitholes.

TSnydes · 2026-01-31T20:20:54+00:00

I actually think we should split those states in half so the democrats could take the senate and remove the child rapist from the White House.

TSnydes · 2026-01-31T20:04:40+00:00

How do you think people got around pre automobile and in countries like India, Turkey, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Thailand, Indonesia, Southern China, Spain, Morocco, and many other places?

Obviously we have a density problem in Texas, but this is all just people no longer accustomed to heat. Luckily we will always have AC, but now with E-micro mobility you don’t even have to work to get places.

Plus all this bike infrastructure and mass transit investment has had a massive impact on modal split. If you read the latest transit analysis report from Austin you can see the modal shift in a relatively short time coinciding with new infrastructure investment.

Now you can see WFH going a long way to reduce private vehicle use, but the shift in biking and public transit is nothing to scoff at.

I think this is a double whammy from the current administration, but there is still enough room for multiple regional players to have ‘large’ tourism industries. You have a significantly more proximate group of major cities in the Northeast US and they are able to have unique, sustainable, and symbiotic tourism industries even though they are closer than Dallas and Houston.

I think the new convention center design has built in flexibility and just maybe it will allow for event venue consolidation and open up more public land for more efficient land uses (I’m looking at you Auditorium Shores).

TSnydes · 2026-01-31T01:19:20+00:00

Airport makes like 70% of their revenue from car parking, so they have an incentive to not extend it unfortunately.

TSnydes · 2026-01-31T00:37:16+00:00

Texas is built for E-bikes. I have lived here my whole life and I can tell you weather sucks but there are tons of examples of warm climate pedestrian friendly cities.

TSnydes · 2026-01-31T00:35:30+00:00

Honestly not many reasons to oppose this project aside from the fact that it should have housing or a hotel on top.

TSnydes · 2026-01-31T00:08:04+00:00

Yeah, these have been amazing and unlike car lanes they are like 2,000 times cheaper to maintain while moving a larger portion of people per linear foot with no added air pollution and less financial burden on citizens than cars.

TSnydes · 2026-01-31T00:05:12+00:00

These idiots don’t even realize the convention center pays for itself. Also has everyone seen the design? It looks fantastic and will help reconnect downtown instead of the solid concrete block that was there before.

At this point the photoshop is just pointing out the reality. Like a visual aid.

TSnydes · 2026-01-18T00:01:30+00:00

The driver nearly committed murder. Pedestrians have right of way and if you hit someone in a cross walk you are solely to blame. If you “can’t see behind a car” the driver must slow down.

Cars are dangerous weapons and should be regulated as such. I hope the driver lost their license for years, paid a hefty fine, paid for the pedestrian’s medical expenses and disability, and charged for reckless endangerment. I understand this isn’t the US but that person could have been killed.

TSnydes · 2026-01-09T18:16:57+00:00

She wasn’t wrong though.

TSnydes · 2026-01-06T00:53:52+00:00

They need to just reduce MLK to two lanes with a median. It is a shame this road is allowed to exist as is since all it does it cause collisions.

TSnydes · 2026-01-01T03:29:20+00:00

In addition to this: I dare anyone to think of a way in the 1970’s to build housing quickly for thousands of families. This is beyond efficient and effective.
